Ok! Ok! I owe you an explanation...I get it...so here goes (the short version because it has taken me 7 months to get to this point.
Last December, I had a pacemaker installed because my cardiologist (?) said so. After 4 months of feeling tired, no energy, shortness of breath, etc., I called a friend from the Mountain, Dr. JD Lawson, a vascular surgeon/cardiologist (Dukie and Vandy grad) and told him I was heading to the Mountain mid-April and asked if he could help me find another cardiologist. Long story a little longer, with him as my agent, he introduced me to three fantastic cardiologists: a PE, thoracic surgeon, and a heart failure specialist (all three Duties)--all agreed--two leaking valves had caused my heart to work overtime and open-heart surgery was required. These guys are all great and I am flying now, feeling better than I have in 7 months (Pause to insert painting here)

So...now I am back to finishing the pieces that I had started in April...and it feels good...no, great! This is an old house in a winding backroad in Valle Crucis, NC. The title is "Wash Day."
I am so glad my Greensboro cardio team has "cleaned up" the mess from the (?) I wrote about in the first paragraph! And now, I look at Dukies in a whole new light...yes, they can play basketball...but they are smarties too!
